 The latest survey on population aging in Cuba (ONEI, 2019) highlights that about 4 out of 10 people aged 60 and over make use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). This result was obtained in 2018, when the survey was applied, reflecting an important presence of these technologies in this population group. However, this figure is lower with respect to other groups and the population in general.
